Why We Offer This Scholarship
John Skabelund, a nationally recognized attorney specializing in asset protection, has a deep personal understanding of how wealth can profoundly impact lives. Having experienced poverty as a teenager, attending three different high schools, and living with friends at age 16, Mr. Skabelund knows the immense physical and emotional toll of financial stress.
“Having earned three college degrees (B.S. Accounting, MBA, and JD), I personally experienced the challenge of working full-time to support myself through school while earning exceptional grades,” says Mr. Skabelund, who largely attributes his own wealth to his professional career as an attorney. “My hope is this scholarship will enable someone to study a little more and work less while earning an education.”
Recognizing the escalating costs of higher education, this scholarship is specifically designed to lighten the financial burden of tuition and textbooks. By investing in future professionals, Ultimate Asset Protection is committed to strengthening individuals, who in turn strengthen their families and communities. The scholarship aims to empower students to pursue their dreams of building generational wealth. Wealth creation enables people to create jobs, invest in the future, and generously contribute to countless lives.
The scholarship is designed to support students who demonstrate a passion for leaving a legacy, the potential for academic success, and have a commitment to making a positive impact in their communities. If you are an aspiring professional eager to build generational wealth, we encourage you to apply for this scholarship opportunity.
